from Ohio to China: appointment on Monday

appointment on Monday

We have our second appointment with the SDA on Monday afternoon. Please continue to pray that we are shown the file for our son and that we know when we see it. We are not sure what the outcome of the meeting will be, but we are confident that God is still in control of our situation.

-------

Still feeling homesick, but getting accustomed to living here in Ukraine. Thank you to our friends and family for keeping us up-to-date on what's going on at home, and thank you to our online blogging friends for the wonderful words of advice and the restaurant ideas.

-------

Here are a few more pictures of desserts we've eaten.

(Yes, we do more than just eat dessert here!)

My thoughts and prayers are with you guys... it is hard reading these other blogs lately where folks are coming home without their child/ren... I am keeping all my fingers and toes crossed that your child is ready and waiting!

Hugs!

Steve Eimers said...: My Ukraine dessert advice:

Just because it looks good doesn't mean it tastes good.

Some desserts don't taste good no matter how much alcohol it has been soaked in.

Praying for a successful appointment on Monday.

I agree with Steve. Just because it looks good, doesn't meant it tastes good.; July 29, 2008 at 5:15 PM
